Anyone else? These ideas ROCK!
Crush It by Gary Vaynerchuk is terrific for WHY to do social media.
Content Rules by Ann Handley and C.C. Chapman is LOADED with content! Great read. Use a highlighter on this one!

Talk about timing. I’m in the middle of writing a post about the Top Ten Social Media Books on Amazon Reading Lists. These 10 books appear the most on “Social Media” reading lists on Amazon:
- The New Rules of Marketing & PR
- Groundswell
- Trust Agents
- The Social Media Bible
- Crush It!
- Tribes
- Here Comes Everybody
- Social Media Marketing An Hour A Day
- Crowdsourcing
- Socialnomics
I’ll post a link to the full article when I’ve completed it

Personally, I’m reading “Curation Nation” because I’m working on a project in that area.

@bobfarnham You might want to check out the SmallBizTrends Book Award nominees and winners.
http://bookawards.smallbiztrends.com/
They have books in multiple categories – marketing, social media, management, economics, technology, and startup. The winners in each category is based on number of votes, so that should guide you to books that everyone enjoyed.

Terrific, thank you!!!
I heard back from C.C. Chapman, Jay Baer and a couple of others with great suggestions. I’ve downloaded enough audio books to cover me for my 24 hour drive from Florida to Vermont – starting tomorrow morning!
Keep the ideas coming! I’m an information junkie and can never get enough! That’s why I’m on this site to begin with!
Thanks again,
Bob

Great thread here. It’d be great if you can join in the adhoc “Book Club” we’ve created in the Small Business Club group discussion. See here for the thread about suggested books to read:
http://www.socialmediaexaminer.com/clubs/small-business/forum/topic/interested-in-joining-sbbc-small-business-book-club/
We started with Content Rules, by Ann Handley and CC Chapman in February. Next book to read is Launch, by Michael Stelzner. Info will follow shortly on that one, and we expect to have a hangout about it in March. But if you want to add your input to Content Rules, here’s the thread:
